Abstract
A system and method for monitoring a status of a user. One or more biometrics associated with a user in a residence where the user resides are sensed. A status of the user is determined in response to sensing the one or more biometrics. One or more questions about the status to the user are communicated. One or more answers to the one or more questions communicated to the user are received. The status is communicated to an administrator of the residence. The status is communicated in response to one or more of the answers.
Claims20
A method for monitoring a status of a user, comprising:
- sensing one or more biometrics associated with a user in a residence where the user resides utilizing one or more of a plurality of sensors of a system;
- determining a status of the user in response to sensing the one or more biometrics and comparing the one or more biometrics with thresholds associated with the user;
- communicating one or more questions about the status to the user through a user interface of the system;
- receiving one or more answers to the one or more questions communicated to the user through the user interface of the system to update the status of the user;
- communicating the status of the user to an administrator of the system, wherein the status is communicated in response to the one or more answers;
- automatically delivering medication to a lockbox of the residence of the user for consumption through a pneumatic delivery system, wherein the medication is delivered through the pneumatic delivery system controlled by the system in response to the one or more biometrics and the answers received from the user and processed by the user interface of the system, and
- releasing safeguards in the residence to dispense the medication from the lockbox for utilization by the user in response to receiving the one or more biometrics from the user.
A system for determining a status of a user, comprising:
- a plurality of sensors sensing one or more biometrics of a user in a residence associated with the user;
- a controller in communication with the plurality of sensors determines the status of the user in response to the one or more biometrics and thresholds for the one or more biometrics, communicates one or more questions about the status to the user, receives one or more answers through a user interface to update the status of the user, and controls automatic delivery of medication to a lockbox associated with the residence of the user in response to the one or more biometrics and the one or more answers received by, the user interface from the user;
- a transceiver in communication with the controller that communicates the status in response to receiving the one or more answers;
- and
- a pneumatic delivery system for delivering medication to the lockbox associated with the user in response to commands from the controller, wherein the lockbox requires one of the one or more biometrics to be read from a biometric wearable to release the medication.
One or more non-transitory machine-readable media of a system having stored therein instructions, which when executed by one or more processors causes the one or more processors to perform operations that comprise;
- sense one or more biometrics associated with a user in a residence where the user resides utilizing one or more of a plurality of sensors of the system, wherein the sensing is performed by two or more of a plurality of sensors in the residence and a wearable sensor associated with the user;
- determine a status of the user in response to sensing the one or more biometrics and comparing the one or more biometrics with thresholds associated with the user;
- communicate one or more questions about the status to the user through a user interface of the system;
- receive one or more answers to the one or more questions communicated to the user through the user interface of the system to update the status of the user;
- communicate the status to an administrator of the residence, wherein the status is communicated in response to receiving the one or more of the answers;
- automatically delivering medication to a lockbox of the residence of the user for consumption through a pneumatic delivery system in response to the one or more biometrics and the one or more answers received from the user, wherein the medication is delivered through the pneumatic delivery system controlled by the system;
- and
- release safeguards to dispense the medication from the lockbox for utilization by the user in response to receiving the one or more biometrics from the user.
